Fordism| Mass production characterized by a high degree of job specialization, as typified by the Ford Motor Company's early use of assembly lines. Mass-production techniques were influenced by US management consultant F W Taylor's book Principles of Scientific Management (1911). |
| Post-Fordism management theory and practice emphasize flexibility and autonomy of decision-making for nonmanagerial staff. It is concerned more with facilitating and coordinating tasks than with control. |
